Located in Lincoln Park, this is one of our favorite parks because it has everything: a big playground, sandbox, large splash pad and even a little water slide. Really great for warm summer days! Parking can be a little tricky but we're always able to find a spot (you may have to park a couple blocks away, though).

Incredible any time of year (but especially on a cold winter day), this is one of the largest greenhouse conservatories in the country! It was built in 1907, and because it is tucked away from downtown Chicago, it remains an amazing hidden treasure. Free parking lot just south of the conservatory. Donation only.
